Capítulo 93: 094. Liu Jie Was Shocked—Su Yan Can Also Speak Dutch!
When Zhang Xiaolong first joined Tencent, he had a strange feeling.
Tencent was just too big.
At that time, Tencent's total market value exceeded 20 billion! Salaries and benefits were incredibly generous. It was then that Zhang Xiaolong became truly aware of his own financial limitations.
However, with the advent of the Internet downturn, Tencent's market value shrunk by more than half. Zhang Xiaolong assumed that everyone was feeling the pinch.
But now, he realized his perspective had been too narrow. Just because times were tough for many didn't mean everyone was suffering.
For example, take the man standing right in front of him—Su Yan.
This guy had just bought an entire building.
"This building cost a total of 3 billion," Su Yan casually mentioned.
Ma Huateng and Zhang Xiaolong were hit hard once again, as if their world had just been rocked. Was the economic crisis affecting Su Yan at all?
"3 billion... that's enough to buy a 30% stake in Tencent," Ma Huateng thought, his heart trembling.
If he had 3 billion, he mused, he'd be truly happy.
Liu Jie, standing nearby, couldn't hide her shock either. Three billion was an astronomical amount. Even though she had seen Su Yan sign the deal and pay the sum with her own eyes, it still seemed crazy whenever she thought about it.
"Mr. Su, why don't you give us a tour of your commercial building?" Ma Huateng said, a hint of humility in his voice.
At that moment, he felt an overwhelming sense of inferiority. But despite that, he was still very curious about Su Yan's new building.
"Of course," Su Yan smiled, gesturing for them to follow. He led Ma Huateng and Zhang Xiaolong on a tour of the building, while Liu Jie headed to the Human Resources Department to continue her "undercover" work.
When they reached the 23rd floor, Ma Huateng couldn't help but express his admiration. "This is incredible!"
He pointed out the luxurious spaces, clearly impressed. "This entire floor is your office? And it even has a private bedroom and study? Unbelievable."
"Young people truly have boundless energy," Ma Huateng remarked with a touch of envy. It wasn't just Su Yan's financial success that he envied, but also his youth. Ma Huateng was no longer in that stage of life where his energy seemed limitless. Although he wasn't exactly old, he was far from his peak.
As they chatted, Ma Huateng received a call from an executive at HIM Company. After ending the call, he turned to Su Yan, his excitement barely contained.
"Brother Su, this is it! The opportunity we've been waiting for has finally arrived," he said eagerly. "HIM's executive, Fanmes, has landed."
Su Yan stood up, ready for action. "Let's get prepared then."
A while later, Su Yan met with Fanmes, an executive from HIM Company, in a private room of an upscale hotel.
"Hello, Fanmes," Su Yan greeted him, speaking in fluent South African Dutch.
Because of Su Yan's exceptional memory, he had learned foreign languages quickly during his spare time. By now, he was proficient in most of the world's major languages—essential for someone planning to venture into international business.
Wherever he went, he could blend right in.
"Hello, Mr. Su," Fanmes replied, shaking Su Yan's hand, his voice tinged with disbelief. He couldn't fathom how someone from the Dragon Kingdom could have mastered the complex dialect of South African Dutch so fluently.
As the two of them conversed in Dutch, Ma Huateng and Zhang Xiaolong, standing behind, were once again left in awe.
"Mr. Su... can actually speak Dutch?" Ma Huateng muttered under his breath, feeling as if his world had just been turned upside down.
This was outrageous—Su Yan was only 18 years old!
Liu Jie, who was nearby, felt her heart tremble even more. In the past, she had clearly remembered Su Yan as just an ordinary kid. His academic performance had been average, barely standing out from the rest. He wasn't remarkable in any way.
But now, he was speaking a language that she couldn't even comprehend—fluently conversing with an executive from HIM Company!
How much had this young man changed?
